Welcome to our list of the Top Tiny Dancer Cover Songs ever. One of the great songs from the dynamic duo of Elton John and Bernie Taupin comes from Elton’s 4th album, “Madman Across the Water” released in 1972. The song has amassed 600,000 in sales despite never being released as an official single.
The lyrics was inspired from Taupin’s first visit to the US. This is an emphasis of the contrast of the women he met in he met with the women with those he had known from England where he is from.
We can’t start off our Best “Tiny Dancer” Covers list without first checking out the amazing original song by the one and only, Sir Elton John. Remembering how great the original is will help us appreciate these great covers as we go.
Tiny Dancer Lyrics
Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band
Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you’ll marry a music man
Ballerina, you must have seen her dancing in the sand
And now she’s in me, always with me, tiny dancer in my hand
Jesus freaks out in the street
Handing tickets out for God
Turning back she just laughs
The boulevard is not that bad
Piano man, he makes his stand
In the auditorium
Looking on she sings the songs
The words she knows, the tune she hums
Tiny Dancer Lyrics

But oh how it feels so real
Lying here with no one near
Only you and you can hear me
When I say softly, slowly
Hold me closer, tiny dancer
Count the headlights on the highway
Lay me down in sheets of linen
You had a busy day today
Hold me closer, tiny dancer
Count the headlights on the highway
Lay me down in sheets of linen
You had a busy day today
Tiny Dancer Lyrics
Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band
Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you’ll marry a music man
Ballerina, you must have seen her dancing in the sand
And now she’s in me, always with me, tiny dancer in my hand
But oh how it feels so real
Lying here with no one near
Only you and you can hear me
When I say softly, slowly
Tiny Dancer Lyrics
Hold me closer, tiny dancer
Count the headlights on the highway
Lay me down in sheets of linen
You had a busy day today
Hold me closer, tiny dancer
Count the headlights on the highway
Lay me down in sheets of linen
You had a busy day today
